                           D7
High on this mountain, the clouds down below
    C                      D7
I'm feeling so strong and alive
     C                         D7
From this rocky perch, I'll continue to search
        C                         D7
For the wind and the snow and the sky
    Bm                 Em7
Oh, I want a lover and I want some friends
    Bm                    Em
And I want to live in the sun
    Bm                   Dm                        C     D  C  D
And I want to do all the things that I never have done


C                         D7
Sunny bright mornings and pale moonlit nights
C                     D7
Keep me from feeling alone
        C                        D7
Now I'm learning to fly and this freedom is like
C                      D7
Nothing that I've ever known
    Bm                       Em7
Oh, I've seen the bottom and I've been on top
    Bm                     Em
But mostly I've lived in between
    Bm                   Dm                        C     D C D C D C D
And where do you go when you get to the end of your dream


C                       D7
Off in the Nether Lands I heard the sound
         C                   D7
Like the beating of heavenly wings
    C                      D7
And deep in my brain I can hear a refrain
      C                     D7
Of my soul as she rises and sings
Bm                   Em7
Anthems to glory and anthems to love
    Bm                        Em
And hymns filled with earthly delight
         Bm                      Dm                      C
Like the songs that the darkness composes to worship the light


INSTRUMENTAL:


C                  D7
Once in a vision I came on some woods
    C                      D7
And stood at a fork in the road
   C                        D7
My choices were clear yet I froze with the fear
   C                        D7
Of not knowing which way to go
    Bm                    Em7
Oh, one road was simple acceptance of life
    Bm                       Em
The other road offered sweet peace
       Bm                   Dm                 C     D  C  D
When I made my decision, my vision became my release
